THE SETTINGS.XML FILE

Understanding the SETTINGS.XML ﬁle

The settings.xml contains all the settings used by Hi-Def Digital Signage Media Player. This ﬁle can be edited directly, allowing you to set the output resolution, the active schedule, in addition to several other options such as NTP server assignment, push mode and pull mode. Many of these settings can also be modiﬁed using the built-in menu system.

The settings.xml ﬁle is located in the root directory of the USB drive and can be edited using any standard text editor.
